World of Tanks is coming to PlayStation 4

Share this post

Hello everyone, this is TJ Wagner, Project Lead at Wargaming.net responsible for bringing World of Tanks to consoles. We’re all very excited to be bringing this massively multiplayer, action packed, 30-player tank battle sensation to PlayStation 4.

World of Tanks is a free-to-play and free-to-win mega hit that’s easy to pick up and a challenge to master. There are over 350 tanks across seven nations to choose from and collect. There are five different classes of tanks to fit the style of play you like best and always hot heavy metal action to be found.

We’re tuning the experience specifically for PlayStation 4, supporting Dualshock 4 controllers, Share Play, PS Vita Remote Play, livestreaming and more. Best of all, World of Tanks is free-to-play for all PlayStation account holders from the get go!

World of Tanks for PlayStation 4 will feature custom maps, custom tanks, custom skins and more. PS Plus members will have access to even more exclusive content and deals. We are also happy to announce that there will be exclusive Girls und Panzer content and themes at launch.

I’d like to personally invite you to join the World of Tanks community. We value our players and work to bring a constant flow of new content and features every month for you to explore and play with. I can’t wait to see what the PlayStation community brings with their gameplay and ideas. I’d also like to invite you to be part of the beta in the coming months, helping us to tune and put the finishing touches to the game before launch. That will happen before the end of this year and you’ll receive special beta awards for participating.

Again, I can’t tell you how excited we are to be bringing World of Tanks to a whole new audience. You can sign up for more information on the game and the upcoming beta at PS4.WorldofTanks.com.

No cross platform, that´s a shame as one of my mates plays it on pc , guess I´ll have to coax him in to buying a ps4. Anyway, thanks for the answer, I´ll be sure to check out world of tanks once it comes out, cheers!

I assume this is just for WoT – any plans for World of Warplanes or World of Warships? (I’m looking at World of Warships on the PC, but if this is coming to PS4, that woud suit me better [more friends on there]).

AAwwww yesssss!! sorry to hear the account don’t come over though… i have spend a lot of money for gold and premium tanks to get where i am now on pc and i am not going to invest all that time and money again.

Interesting, considering how I got so frustrated with War Thunder after a while – that had literally six maps on the tank battles, and you could easily drive across one for five minutes before getting one-shotted from a mile away. Plus it had massive balance issues and no British tanks.

I’ll reserve judgement though as I really hate trailers like that – all flashy cinematics and no gameplay. Sure, I can watch PC and XBox footage, but I’d prefer to see actual PS4 tanks in action. A trailer like this automatically makes me suspicious, that the cinematics are being used because either it isn’t in a fit state to show yet, or the actual gameplay wouldn’t be impressive enough to get people to play it – much like the ads for shovelware like Clash of Clans.

I hope to be proven wrong though, and hey, Girls und Panzer content … this I gotta see.

This will be a full beta test in a couple of months, right?I signed up for the newsletter on the beta test but he did not come, how can I know whether the beta has begun or not?I’m afraid to miss the news about the beginning of the beta-test:)
